LRAB Chapter 521
Chapter 521
The tense Manchester derby, the fourth encounter between the two teams in two seasons, is like the fourth city war in Manchester.
The score is 1:1.
In the situation, Manchester United has a small advantage.
Under Ferguson's painstaking efforts in the new season, the Red Devils this season have shown signs of the Red Devils' revival.
In the original history, the Red Devils won the league championship again in the 2007-08 season, and broke into the Champions League final and narrowly defeated Chelsea in a penalty shootout, reaching the top of Europe for the third time.
Although this season's Manchester United.
There are no four key stars Hargreaves, Anderson, Nani and Tevez.
But Manchester City's sudden rise in the past two seasons has also put enough pressure on the Red Devils, forcing the entire Red Devils to grow further.
In the remaining time of the first half.
The Red Devils are advancing on the offensive end, and Ronaldo's unsolvable breakthrough on the right has become the most troublesome problem for Manchester City's defense.
Stuart had to direct the players, pull back, and put more people on the defensive end to coordinate.
...............................................
31st minute of the game.
Scholes made a long diagonal pass from the backcourt to Ronaldo on the right.
After Ronaldo unloaded the ball, he faced Podolski and performed a man-ball split.
He broke out instantly after knocking the ball with his right foot.
While touching the ball behind Podolski, he accelerated the ball.
Knight and Martinez stepped forward to double-team Ronaldo.
Ronaldo made another trip.
Pure explosion.
Breaking out from the encirclement of Knight and Martinez, he changed the line of the ball and rushed straight into the Manchester City penalty area.
"Can't stop it!"
"Can't stop it at all!"
"C Ronaldo once again dribbled out of Manchester City's defensive blockade!"
"His instant burst was too fast!"
"Manchester United's chance!"
"Rooney and Saha have already followed up and forced to the top of Manchester City's penalty area!"
"This ball..."
Old Trafford's cheers with Ronaldo came to an abrupt end.
A blue figure wearing a No. 9 jersey.
Suddenly rushed out.
Cleanly shoveled the ball under Ronaldo's feet out of the sideline, and Ronaldo also fell to the ground under the huge impact.
"Su Fei!!"
"The key clearance tackle!!"
"Beautiful!!"
"Su Fei's sliding tackle was too timely. Ronaldo has already raised his foot for this ball. He has a great chance to send the ball into Manchester City's penalty area!"
On the court.
Ronaldo got up angrily and looked for Su Fei's figure.
But found that Su Fei had already run to participate in the defense of Manchester United's sideline hand throw.
Full of anger.
But there was nowhere to vent.
And Su Fei's tackle was indeed very clean, he first tackled the ball and then knocked him down.
So the referee did not blow the whistle.
..............................................
The 43rd minute of the game.
Manchester United's attack resumed, Carrick passed the ball directly to Giggs on the left.
Giggs crossed the center line with the ball.
With Scholes who was advancing, the two of them made a series of tacit short passes on the side.
While completing the advancement, it also attracted Manchester City's personnel to move closer to the left.
When Giggs approached the attacking third zone.
Suddenly, he raised his leg and kicked the ball hard, and the football crossed the field and flew high to the right.
"Giggs!!"
"Long pass!"
"Accurately found Ronaldo on the right!"
"Ronaldo's pass was very clean!"
"Wow!"
"The falling football was firmly controlled by Ronaldo!"
"Ronaldo!!"
"Pull the ball to avoid Sun Jihai's pressing!"
"Choose to cut inside!"
"Ronaldo!!"
"Shoot directly?!!"
On the court, Ronaldo, who was dribbling the ball close to the right side of the penalty area, suddenly dribbled the ball and sent a long shot from a small angle.
This shot came too suddenly.
Manchester City goalkeeper James could not react at all.
The football brushed the right post.
Got into the goal.
Crossed the goal line.
In an instant, the whole Old Trafford erupted in cheers like a volcanic eruption.
"GGGG---OOOO---AAAA---LLLL!"
"GGGOOOAAALLL!"
"GOAL!!!"
"GOAL GOAL GOAL!"
"Cristiano Ronaldo!!"
"This is a world-class shot!"
"This shot is impeccable in terms of power and angle. No goalkeeper can save this shot!"
"2:1!""In the 44th minute of the game, near the end of the halftime, Manchester United equalized the score and then took the lead with Ronaldo's goal!"
"Ronaldo was in great form today!"
"It's like a sharp sword, breaking through Manchester City's armor again and again. If Manchester City doesn't pay attention, Ronaldo will perform a good show of closing the throat with one sword!"
-[Damn, this shot is really cool. ]
-[Over the past two seasons, Ronaldo has performed really well every time he faces Manchester City. Who still remembers that he scored a hat trick in a game against Manchester City last season. ]
-[There's no way. Manchester City can't stop Ronaldo's breakthrough. It's not just Manchester City. If you change AC Milan to this outbreak, I don't think it will work. ]
-[In fact, I think Manchester City's tactics in the first half had problems. Anyway, they couldn't defend it, so they might as well let go and attack, and don't hook eight to let Su Fei return to defense. ]
............................................
On the court.
After scoring the goal, Ronaldo rushed to the corner area, jumped up, turned around and landed with his arms swung.
"Siu!!!!"
The Red Devils fans at Old Trafford shouted in unison.
Ferguson chewed his gum excitedly on the sidelines.
Because today.
He saw the dawn of revenge on Manchester City.
Not far away.
Stuart frowned and watched the replay on the big screen, and was already thinking about the midfield adjustment strategy in his mind.
Keep playing like this.
Let the Manchester United No. 7 play recklessly on the right side.
Today is really going to be a car accident.
But.
What to do?
Stuart didn't know that he had fallen into a vicious circle.
His mind was full of ideas.
Now it's all about how to limit Ronaldo and defend Manchester United's attack.
Little did he know.
It was his conservative tactical strategy today.
It was the fundamental reason that fueled Manchester United's offensive fireworks.
........................................................
When you face a team that has won three consecutive games, but fell behind at halftime in the fourth encounter.
The overall morale of the team and the mentality of the players are hard not to be affected.
Halftime break.
The atmosphere in the away team's locker room was low, especially for the players in Manchester City's midfield and backcourt.
In the first half, Ronaldo's breakthrough on the wing dealt a heavy blow to them.
Sun Jihai and Knight looked very annoyed.
Constantly reflecting on the problems they had in their defense in the first half.
Confrontation?
Positioning?
Assistance?
No, no, no, these don't seem to be problems.
The biggest problem is that it is really impossible to defend. The instantaneous burst of Manchester United's No. 7 was too fast. After being passed, even if he reacted in time, he could only watch as he was pulled away.
In the corner.
Su Fei also frowned, which was rare.
He could read his teammates' thoughts from their faces and understand them very well.
Ronaldo's growth and progress this season is too great.
It is no exaggeration to say.
It has reached the level of Manchester United's peak No. 7 in the original history.
Phnom Penh Luo!
If Phnom Penh Luo's breakthrough can be easily stopped, it will not be Phnom Penh Luo.
